loAttach = loMSG.attachments   && attachments object
llAttach = loAttach.Count > 0   
For Each loAttachment In loMSG.attachments
   lcFileName = loAttachment.filename
   if lower(justext(lcFileName) ) != 'gifs' && what about exe? 
       loAttachment.SaveAsFile("c:\attachments\"+lcFileName)   && save attachment
   endif
